Anyone who has spent any amount of time in the bay area theatre scene knows our next guest, Dorian Lockett – he has graced so many stages and is recently finished with Water By The Spoonful at SF Playhouse. We’ll get to know Dorian’s origin story, how he got into theatre, what techniques he’s learned and where he sees himself in the future.
On June 4th, Dorian will be hosting a workshop called Auditioning and Agent Hunting for Voice Actors – check out the link here: https://www.eventcombo.com/e/new-date---auditioning--agent-hunting-for-voice-actors-w-dor-44919?fbclid=IwAR3TTdW0ZWvcAT-De3v0sBDhDOxoMoKMmCO5q3xyxneciLbwGkWmiAtKXKM
